Louise with the red shirt (The picture of him and his wife that is pregnant with their first child will come soon)
Louise is 25 years old and his wife is 18 . She is expecting their first baby now. They have got their land and is starting up their lives now . They wake up at 03H00 every morning to start to make bread in a clay oven outside their little house . that give some money with which they can buy other food . Boasvinda also started to open up some land for them to plant their own maize . They are a very positive young couple and are definately not afraid of work . With a little help , they will be able to change their area and the lives of many other people .
They have got 2.4 ha land of their own and then also work on some land of his grandfather .Louise also owns an old computor on which he do some work form the children of a nearby school . He speak some English and are also teaching teaching his wife and some other young people. They are very positive to work with AgriServi to change their piece of land into a semi-commercial farm.
Happy Story – both of them are happy and very positive about their future . They promised each other to work hard and to use their land to provide for their children .
Sad Story - louise never knew his father . His mother left to work in South-Africa and then one Christmas she was on her way to come and visit the children in Mozambique . The bus was involved in an accident and his mother died before she could see her family . This made him very sad . He had to stay then with his uncle , but his uncle has been a drunk at that time . Life was not easy .
Never forget story :One day the priest of their church asked his uncle to do the bible reading during the church service . He did not really want to do it and first went to drink in the town . He still went to church , but was drunk when he read the bible . After the service the priest walked behind him and told him that he must get himself ready to go to Bible school the next week . He had no choice and just had to do it . Bible school changed his life completely . After bible school he got formally married to his wife and stayed involved at the church from that day . He never drinks again . Louise will never forget that day when his uncle`s life changed .
Dream for the area: Louise and Boasvinda agrees that if they would receive a lot of money to spend on agriculture for the area , they would just continue to de-bush the area and then help people to plant more crops.
Their own dream: Their own dream is the same than their dream for the area .They would first use some money to help them to de-bush more of their land. They would then plough it and plant more maize. They understand the concept of semi-commercial farming and would like to change their land into a semi-commercial farm.
Present income: They earn USD 70 per month from the bread that they sell ..
